Week 29 and 30 (Butternut squash to large cabbage)

Munchkin has been getting more and more active recently. He really responds to the stories and playing hide and seek.

It's an amazing experience being able to interact with this little person inside mum's tummy. I've also become an expert in all things baby because I read one book about Fatherhood, yes one, I fear I'm annoying people, particularly Lena.

So my latest story was Munchkin goes to town. Here it is below:

Munchkin goes to town

Today munchkin went to townHe couldn't see the townHe couldn't feel where he was goingBut he could hear itFrom inside mummy's tummyWhere everything was safe and warm

In town he heard some carsMunchkin couldn't see the carsHe couldn't feel the carsBut he could hear the carsand the sound they made wentBrrrm brrrm brrrm

In town daddy opened the door to a shopMunchkin couldn't see the doorHe couldn't feel the doorBut he could hear the doorAnd the sound it made wentCreak creak creak

In town the market was busyMunchkin couldn't see how busy the market wasAnd he couldn't feel anyone around himBut he could hear everyone moving aroundAnd the sound they made wentShuffle shuffle shuffle

In town the clock struck 3pmMunchkin couldn't see the clockHe couldn't feel the clockBut he could hear the clockAnd the sound it made wentDong Dong Dong

That meant it was time to leaveBecause daddy didn't have any more money for parkingOn the drive home, munchkin fell asleepBecause he was tucked away inside mummy's tummySnug and sound

Winter 2014 Chapter 1 It’s
an inescapable feeling. You try to deny it, try to ignore it but eventually it
becomes you. There’s the knowledge that it’s wrong, what I do is wrong but
fight is not an option. It always wins… that desire… in the end… it always
wins. I
need to do this to feel normal… whatever normal is… that comfortable certainty
that makes people feel safe, the thing that avoids the unknown…the
undefined…and replaces it with the anticipated, the usual. Nothing
misunderstood, that’s normal. For me, that normal makes me feel nothing but
dead inside. There’s no spark. No life. Just monotony. I
know I’m not right. I know what I do deviates from the way of average people,
from the everyday position of human beings. But I can’t help it, I need it. At
this time, I need it. The way life is, it’s a temperature scale. The regular
position is cold, our standard life, go to bed at 10pm, get up at 6am, get
ready for work, go to work, come home, eat, sleep. It’s all cold. There’s no
passion…

Things are getting really close now. Mum is struggling with her back and I've had to start taking on more around the house. It helps now that we've started ante-natal classes and have been able to chat to some other pregnant couples.

We're very lucky in that our NCT group are great. We've met four really nice couples and we all seem to get on well. We went out for our first meal last week and have planned another for next week. It's great to be able to talk to people in the same situation.

In fact the way our NCT coordinator talks about the birth and the first few months, it almost feels like we're all a unit preparing to go into battle. There are so many different cries, emotions, signs we have to get to know about how baby's feeling plus there're all these warnings about sleep deprivation, strange occurrences at birth, cone heads, something called 'The Show',.... WTF!

It's been a hectic lead up to this point but finally, this week we found out we were definitely pregnant. It's an amazing feeling and one that we thought may not happen. I wanted to document the run in to becoming a dad for the first time. I hope I manage to keep it up in this blog.
Since we found out I find myself taking stock during quiet moments and steadily coming to terms with the reality that we about to realise a significant milestone in our lives.
It's an odd feeling because it doesn't quite feel real but yet I'm already planning ahead to when the moment arrives and I can hold baby in my arms. It's difficult to predict how that will feel and I'm trying not to be too methodical about the whole process. We should be enjoying this lead up. That's important.
It's exciting to plan ahead and today we went into London to look at baby things. It's only when you enter a shop like Mothercare for the first time where you're not …
